Acting
is
a
tough
profession
but
the
rewards
are
equally
good.
Who
wouldn"t
be
lured
by
a
sponsored
trip
to
a
foreign
destination?
A
particular
news
channel
has
been
shelling
out
lakhs
of
rupees
by
taking
the
celebrities
to
foreign
lands.
The
likes
of
Harshad
Chopda
and
Arjun
Bijlani
have
experienced
an
all-paid
trip
to
Australia.
This
time
is
was
the
turn
of
Gaurav
Chopra,
a.k.a
Abeer
of
'Yeh
Pyar
Na
Ho
Hoga" fame.
The
actor
was
taken
on
a
three-day
trip
to
Oman,
his
first
trip
to
the
desert
nation.
Speaking
of
the
Omani
people,
he
says,
“Though
quite
short,
it
was
a
wonderful
trip
for
me
as
I"ve
never
been
to
Oman
before.
I
was
pleasantly
surprised
to
learn
that
a
majority
of
its
people
speak
Hindi.
I
was
really
touched
when
the
local
people
confessed
knowing
me,
and
that
they
watch
Hindi
serials
regularly."
As
for
sightseeing,
the
actor
went
on
a
cruise,
where
he
saw
the
dolphins
swim,
had
a
camel
ride,
and
Dirt
bike
riding
in
the
desert.
They
were
supposed
to
go
for
a
desert
safari
as
well
but
the
paucity
of
time
didn"t
allow
them
the
luxury.
The
actor
wasn"t
all
alone;
he
had
the
pleasurable
company
of
pretty
white
women.
One
of
them
even
pecked
the
guy
regularly.
When
asked,
where
he
found
such
company,
Khanna
replied,
“The
ladies
were
staying
at
the
resort.
They
got
all
excited
looking
at
the
camera.
They
then
requested
the
director,
wanting
to
be
a
part
of
the
video
and
were
duly
obliged."
What
about
the
kiss,
did
he
enjoy
or
was
he
embarrassed
by
his
fellow
tourist"s
antics?
Laughs!
“That
is
something
which
I
wouldn"t
like
to
comment
upon.
All,
I
can
say
is
that
I
was
taken
by
surprise.
It
wasn"t
planned,"
the
actor
signs
off.
